Horford’s First Stint in Beantown
Date: 2010s
Al Horford’s first stint in Boston lasted three seasons. He enjoyed a special campaign in 2017-18 by making not only the NBA All-Star team, but also the NBA All-Defensive team. While he left for the Philadelphia 76ers in 2019, the veteran big man returned to Boston ahead of the 2021-22 season. In announcing his return, Horford recalled that Danny Ainge and Brad Stevens “sold [him] on the culture and winning banner 18.”
